REUTERS/Gary McWilliams/File Photo Acquire Licensing RightsNov 6 (Reuters) - U.S. pipeline operator Kinder Morgan (KMI.N) said on Monday it would acquire NextEra Energy Partners' (NEP.N) gas pipelines in South Texas for $1.82 billion. NextEra Energy Partners' (NEP) Texas natural gas pipeline portfolio, STX Midstream, primarily consists of seven pipelines which provide natural gas to Mexico and power producers and municipalities in South Texas. "Upon closing, the proceeds would be sufficient to pay off the outstanding project-related debt," NextEra Energy Partners' CEO John Ketchum said in a statement. The sale price represents an about 10 times multiple on the estimated calendar-year 2023 adjusted core profit for the Texas natural gas pipeline portfolio, NEP said.

REUTERS/Gary McWilliams/File Photo Acquire Licensing RightsCompanies Kinder Morgan Inc FollowOct 18 (Reuters) - Pipeline and terminal operator Kinder Morgan (KMI.N) on Wednesday posted lower-than-expected profit for the third quarter as higher interest expenses offset strength in its natural gas and products pipeline segment. Shares of Kinder Morgan were down 1.6% at $16.87 in after-market trade. Lower contribution from Kinder Morgan's carbon dioxide (CO2) transportation segment also pressured its quarterly earnings, hurt by weaker prices of natural gas liquids and CO2, lower volumes and higher power costs. The Houston-based firm's earnings from the CO2 segment dropped to $175 million in the July-September quarter, from $195 million last year.

☆ Canada guarantees up to $2.2 billion in fresh loans to Trans Mountain expansion project

Companies Kinder Morgan Inc FollowAug 5 (Reuters) - A Canadian government agency has guaranteed fresh commercial loans of up to C$3 billion ($2.2 billion) to the controversial Trans Mountain pipeline expansion project that has suffered repeated cost overruns. Prime Minister Justin Trudeau's Liberal government bought the Trans Mountain pipeline in 2018 from Kinder Morgan Inc (KMI.N) to ensure the expansion project got built and provided a C$10 billion loan guarantee to TMC. It is meant to unlock Asian markets for Canadian oil, which is mostly exported to the United States now. TMC had received a up to C$3 billion loan guarantee between late March and early May this year and had received a C$10 billion loan guarantee in 2022 from the federal government. Canada's finance ministry did not immediately respond to a Reuters request for comment on the fresh loan guarantee.

It is meant to unlock Asian markets for Canadian oil, which is mostly exported to the United States now. Critics have also slammed the ownership of a pipeline project by the Liberal government, which they argue runs counter to Trudeau's ambitious climate goals. TMC had received a up to C$3 billion loan guarantee between late March and early May this year and had received a C$10 billion loan guarantee in 2022 from the federal government. Canada's finance ministry did not immediately respond to a Reuters request for comment on the fresh loan guarantee. In June, a finance ministry spokesperson said the loan guarantee was "common practice" and did not reflect any new public spending.

Companies Kinder Morgan Inc FollowJuly 19 (Reuters) - Kinder Morgan (KMI.N) on Wednesday missed Wall Street estimates for second-quarter revenue as the pipeline operator transported lower volumes of gasoline and diesel through its network. Energy output has yet not reached pre-pandemic levels as companies have kept a tight rein on production, pressuring pipeline operators' transport volumes. While Kinder Morgan's volumes for gasoline and diesel fell in the reported quarter compared to the previous year, its total delivery volumes rose on higher natural gas volumes. The Houston, Texas-based firm posted revenue of $3.50 billion, compared with analysts' average estimate of $4.55 billion, according to Refinitiv data.

☆ Canadian port workers back on strike after voting down government-brokered deal, returning supply chain to 'turmoil'

Photographer: Ben Nelms/Bloomberg via Getty ImagesThe supply chain is in turmoil again with International Longshore & Warehouse Union West Coast Canada members walking off the job after a key union caucus voted down a tentative deal that had temporarily ended the West Coast ports strike last week. Rob Ashton, president of the ILWU Canada, said in a statement that it did not believe the recommendations had the ability to protect union jobs. His group estimated that the first strike would cause an average 6-8 weeks of supply chain disruption before conditions would return to normal. The National Association of Chemical Distributors told CNBC some chemical companies are expected supply chain congestion until October as a result of the strike. Critical chemicals that go into food, cleaning, water purification, and personal care, among many others, flow through the West Coast ports of Canada and down to the United States.

Companies Kinder Morgan Inc FollowJuly 19 (Reuters) - Pipeline and terminal operator Kinder Morgan (KMI.N) on Wednesday posted lower-than-expected second-quarter revenue, hurt by lower commodity prices.

☆ Union says Lyondell misled it about possible Houston refinery buyers
▼ + stars: | 2023-03-11 | by ( Erwin Seba | ) www.reuters.com time to read: +2 min

HOUSTON, March 11 (Reuters) - The United Steelworkers union (USW) said in a letter to members it was misled by Lyondell Basell Industries (LYB.N) about possible buyers for the company’s Houston refinery, which the company has set for permanent closure late this year. The letter was sent on Friday to members who work at the Lyondell refinery. According to the letter, the union said it would contact government officials about the would-be buyers of the refinery and take further actions involving union members in the future. Offers made on the refinery when Lyondell was weighing a possible sale in 2021 fell short of the refinery's value, he said. Sources familiar with the matter said Kinder Morgan Inc (KMI.N), which operates a terminal near the refinery, approached Lyondell about a possible sale.

☆ The 1% Stock-Buyback Tax Hasn’t Slowed Repurchases. A Proposed 4% Tax Might.

Executives largely shrugged off a new 1% tax on stock buybacks as the cost of doing business. Even with the 1% tax, stock buybacks are the preferred way to return cash to shareholders, Mr. Krone said at a conference in February. Stock repurchases by Berkshire and the publicly traded companies it owns benefited investors, he wrote in the Feb. 25 letter. For one, share repurchases typically don’t commit them to continuing to buy shares, and offer flexibility on timing. “We only really consider share repurchases when we have an attractive repurchase price,” the CFO said.

☆ Wall Street is feeling bearish, but a rare stock market pattern is hinting at a bull rally to kick off 2023.
▼ + stars: | 2023-01-18 | by ( Phil Rosen | ) www.businessinsider.com time to read: +6 min

Traders gather on the floor of the New York Stock Exchange, Friday, March 18, 2016. There is little optimism for stocks among Wall Street's foot soldiers, according to the latest fund manager survey from Bank of America. As BofA pointed out, that means the so-called "pain trade" in the stock market is higher, and any sudden rally would catch investors off-guard. But Wall Street survey be damned, stocks seem to be on the brink of a rare, bullish trifecta. The surge has pushed the world's most largest crypto token to levels not seen since before the fall of FTX.

More than 1.5 million homes and businesses lost power, oil refineries in Texas cut gasoline and diesel production on equipment failures, and heating and power prices surged on the losses. Oil and gas output from North Dakota to Texas suffered freeze-ins, cutting supplies. Freeze-ins - in which ice crystals halt oil and gas production - this week trimmed production in North Dakota's oilfields by 300,000 to 350,000 barrels per day, or a third of normal. Power prices on Texas's grid also spiked to $3,700 per megawatt hour, prompting generators to add more power to the grid before prices fell back as thermal and solar supplies came online. That is the biggest drop in output since the February 2021 freeze knocked out power for millions in Texas.

☆ Cheniere CFO Aims for Investment-Grade Credit Rating as Natural-Gas Prices Soar

Cheniere Energy Inc.’s finance chief is working toward landing an investment-grade credit rating in the coming year, as the largest U.S. exporter of liquefied natural gas pays down debt and benefits from the run-up in energy prices. Photo: Cheniere Energy Inc. The company expects to reach investment grade next year based on its current rating and financial position, Mr. Davis said. An investment-grade rating would provide confidence to long-term investors and customers that the company can survive volatility in commodity markets, Mr. Davis said. Higher natural gas prices have been a boon to Cheniere’s finances, prompting it to accelerate plans to pay down debt.
